IRAN to Make Mobile Phones

4 April 2007 by axxxr
Iran's first domestically made mobile phones will hit the market in June, says a senior Iranian telecoms industry official.

The new mobile phones will be sold under the brand name ITMC.The Chief of Iran Telecommunication Manufacturing Company, Mohammad Ebrahim Mottale', told Fars news agency that Iran will manufacture its mobile phones in cooperation with South Korean firms.

"We have finalized an agreement with the Korean side to manufacture cellphones in Iran," he said.Mottale' did not specify any financial details of the deal nor did he name the Korean companies involved in the project.

All of the required technical equipment for the project have been purchased and some 300,000 cellphones will be manufactured in the first six months of production, he said.

Mottale' said he expects mobile phone production in Iran to reach two million units a year within the next two years. source:presstv textually

II’m Iranian and live in Iran.

Unfortunately, almost anything in Iran starts with a good idea and ends up in something useless. The experiences show that ‘quality’ is not factor for Iranian government at all. All they can do would be to increase import tariffs and montage mobiles and brand them as ‘Iranian Product’ as they did for ‘Iranian Car’! Instead of seeking useless atomic energy (bomb if you prefer) it’d be better to investigate in (no copy) high-tech industries. It’s carrying shame.

That flag is a desecration to the nation of Iran. What is that rubbish blending the red/green into the white? That symbol in the middle is plagiarised from Sikhs and has nothing to do with Iran.
Put a Lion in there or a liberty torch and we'll have something to talk about.

i don't see why iran shouldn't make mobile phones. who is anyone here to say that they shouldn't? although...from the pics on the flag (and i don't know whether that's what the phone will look like that they're going to be producing first!) the phone they've got designed is well...pretty crap! it's a slider with an aerial! bad!

oh me an iranian dont know whether to be proud or not coz you guys stating this stuff will be tottaly copied...ofcourse this is the way they always do,copying:D

i hope they will success(absolutly they wont sell well enough due to their always really poor quality stuff comparing with well-known brands)

but personally dont think this would be a copy,their just manufacturing draws of the Korean side under their license,as they do the same about Renault L90,or many LG home and computer parts...
(btw,that's not our traditional flag)

Good for Iran, hope they do well. I agree with antichrist it might be similar stuff like the copycat chinese models of s.e phones that china makes.
